After reading the other TripAdvisor reviews of the Palazzetto da Schio and the Contessa Anna, I have to admit being stumped for anything more I can add, except possibly to say, “Believe them all!” My wife and I stayed in Apartment 2 for five nights in early April, 2013, and enjoyed every minute. As others have noted the Contessa Anna... More

Stayed over Easter 2013 for 6 nights with my husband and 16 year old daughter. Everything was made easy by Contessa Anna da Schio from quick, informative replies to my e-mails, excellent directions and lots of useful information to make our stay easier. The apartment was very well equipped with everything we needed, including wellies and a mobile phone and... More

I stayed for 5 nights at the Palazzetto da Schio in October 2012, with my two children ages 13 and 10. The beautiful apartment, location and the charming friendships we made with Contessa Anna and her guests were the highlight of our trip. I would recommend this apartment (10 out of 10!) for those who like to travel and experience... More

We stayed at Palazzetto da Schio for 5 weeks and it really is as wonderful an experience as other reviewers have written. The Contessa could not have been more welcoming and was exceptionally considerate throughout our stay. We stayed in the flat on the top floor overlooking the garden. It was very peaceful and contained lovely furniture. A real bonus... More

Superb location in Dorsoduro. Very quiet, romantic and charming. The Contessa is a very nice woman, and extremely knowledgeable as she grew up in this very house (although it sounds like it was much less comfortable when she was a child). We had apt. no. 5, which was spacious. Only quibbles: the aparment is dark, which is not a problem... More

I am very grateful to my guests who give me good marks and I hope I shall go on deserving them, but I'm sorry when I hear that something was missing to their comfort which could easily be set right. Difficult to change the mattresses (most people complain of back-ache if they are soft) but very easy to provide a... More

I cannot add much to the existing reviews other than our gratitude to Anna for making our first visit to Venice so memorable. The apartment is perfect, centrally located, as quiet as we had hoped for, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. Anna was a pleasure to work with, from our very first email exchanges to the excellent and thorough introduction... More

This was a find. There were 6 of us staying at 2 apartments in this well located, quiet and well appointed Palazzetto. The Contessa da Schio was a delightful and informative hostess. We were on the third floor and with carry on luggage, the steps were easily mounted. Might be harder for heavier bags but there are 2nd floor apartments... More

We stayed in apartment no. 4 for 3 nights. The apartment overlooked the canal and was very comfortable and well equipped. We thought the location was fantastic away from the crowds of San Marco but easy to get around. Contessa Anna was very helpful in providing information about the area - restaurants and shopping locally.

The apartment No. 3 in Contessa Anna da Schio’s Palazzetto has been ideal for two couples: To each of the two great bedrooms belongs a small bathroom – great for us - the small kitchen is equipped with everything you might want, even a dishwasher and a washing machine are available as well as a trolley for shopping in the...

When I started opening my house to visitors there were very few guests from North of the Alps. The German speaking people seemed to avoid Venice though they flocked down to the sea and to the lake of Garda. Many of them thought that the Venetians were a bit difficult to deal with. Venetians, on their part, also felt a... More

Situated in a charming palazzo, this elegantly furnished and properly equipped apartment is located in a quiet and cozy neighborhood, nevertheless nearby the most famous tourist attractions. The hostess attends to the comfort of her tenants with efficiency and courtesy. A stay in this location is an additional asset to your journey in this unique city which is Venice.

It is hard work, keeping a Venetian house "above water" but it has its compensations and one of them is the possibility of meeting charming people from all over the world. Many of them, by the day they leave, feel like friends rather than clients, and so do these ladies from Canada whom I thank for their kind words. More
